Recent News & Updates

  • The SPARCS Proposal Module will be receiving a minor update on Tuesday August 2, 2022 at 6:00pm.  It is expected that the patch will only take 15 minutes.  The patch will apply some new functionality as well as fix some known issues.  Below is a summary of the items that are changing.

    • A new PI Assurance Statement has been added for the Department of Energy (DOE).  This PI Assurance will appear on the Funding Proposal Workspace when the DOE or a DOE related entity is selected as the Direct or Prime Sponsor
    • The existing NSF PI Assurance Statement has been updated to reflect updated NSF hyperlinks
    • The Sole Source Justification template has been updated to reflect the new dollar threshold.  This template is accessible by selecting Generate Template on the funding proposal workspace
    • The help text on the Subcontract Attachments smartform has been revised to identify all necessary subcontractor paperwork that is needed for the funding proposal submission
    • A known issue existed that would not allow a user to edit a subcontractor budget after it was initially created. A fix has been applied to allow users to edit a subcontractor budget provided that the funding proposal is in an editable state.
